The government is rounding up and imprisoning innocent people, at an ever increasing rate. Wish I would see a big newspaper report this big news.
NEW: ICE has finally released post-shutdown detention data. The latest data reveals that a full 40%(!) of people arrested in the interior and held in ICE detention have no criminal record; no criminal charges or prior convictions. That is up from just 4% when Trump took office.

We spent a year investigating billionaires for @washingtonpost.com.

We found: the wealthiest 100 Americans gave $1.1 billion to influence the 2024 elections — 140x more than they did in 2000. And almost all of that giving boosted Republicans.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.

If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

A horrifying graphic from Pew showing the fruits of the right wing war on public health.

Only 48% of Republicans believe that vaccines prevent serious illness, while 80% of Democrats do.

This is not a difference of opinion in science. This is the result of a ruthless disinformation campaign.

Trump's rants against Democrats have inspired everything from death threats and pipe bombs to the January 6th assault on the Capitol.

This is a time to take him literally and seriously.
Important: House Dem leaders just said Trump's call for execution of Dems has prompted them to contact US Capitol Police and House Sergeant at Arms to "ensure the safety of these members and their families."

Treat Trump like an unhinged menace. He's weak and in deep political trouble. Don't let up.

also we now have a “whites only” refugee policy. they aren’t trying to hide the white supremacy anymore. it’s overt and mainstream.
Exclusive: The U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify the swastika, nooses and the Confederate flag as hate symbols.

The military service drafted a new policy that classifies them as “potentially divisive.”

Have followed Darcie for years. She's indigenous, a scientist, an F&SF author and has just been told by a public university she can't talk about racism, bias, oppression, stereotypes, you name it.
This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

The hostile reaction has been so pronounced, in fact, that it feels like a company announcing it would never force AI into its products would carve out a pretty good chunk of the market.

NEW: a contractor is paying random people $300 to physically track immigrants for ICE. They're given addresses, vehicles, told to monitor the target. That information then goes back up to ICE. These are not licensed private investigators; members of the public

The Trump administration is canceling a Biden plan that would have required airlines to pay passengers cash when their flight is disrupted and it’s the airline’s fault.

This would have put money back in Americans’ pockets. Not anymore.

One of the reasons these people are trying to womanize 15-year-olds is so they can marry them and train them (raise them) to be the submissive wives they want. Some of these folk voted against ending child marriage for that very reason.
